After continued use, your espresso machine
may develop a build-up of mineral deposits,
and therefore require occasional ‘descaling’.
We recommend descaling your machine
every 4-6 months, although this period
will depend on the hardness of water and
frequency of use.
Descaling Solution
You have 3 options:
A. Espresso Machine Descaling
Tablets.
or
B. Liquid Descaler
A & B Descaling options are available for
purchase
online or from major retailers.
or
C. White vinegar & warm water.
Descaling Program
The Descaling Program takes approximately
10 minutes to complete.
Preparing for Descaling
• Fill Water Reservoir with Solution
A. Fill Water Reservoir with 4 cups of warm
water add one Espresso Machine Descaling
Tablet. Allow tablet to fully dissolve.
or
B. In an empty Water Reservoir add half a
cap full of Liquid Descaler. Fill
Reservoir
Water
with 4 cups of warm water.
Allow solution to mix thoroughly.
or
C. In an empty Water Reservoir add 1½
tablespoons of white vinegar. Fill Water
Reservoir with 4 Cups of warm water.
Allow solution to mix thoroughly.
- Place the Water Reservoir into position.
• Place Containers
